The Backstage of the cancellation of Mitsotakis – Erdogan meeting SKAI’s correspondent in Istanbul was quoted, Manolis Kostidiswho noted that the request for cancellation came from the Turkish side just 5 hours before the appointment, although the Turkish side was aware of his meeting Erdogan and other Arab and Muslim leaders with Trump 48 before, and could have been canceled the meeting earlier.

According to information received by the Milliyet newspaper, the proposal for the meeting between Erdogan and Mitsotakis came from Athens. President Akif Chagatai Kilits’s foreign policy and security adviser, discussed the matter with his Greek counterpart last week. Due to President Erdogan’s dense program, it was agreed to make a statement after a possible meeting. However, the Greek side announced the meeting, violating the agreement. Following this development, the meeting scheduled for today was postponed at Ankara’s request. “
Regarding the argument that meeting with Kyriakos Mitsotakis There was no official program of the Turkish president, this is because there are many meetings on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, Manolis Kostidis commented.
At the same time, Ankara knew that Mitsotakis would surely enter the table with the Turkish president on the topic of the lifting of Casus Belli and then the Greek side would make a statement, while Erdogan was in his speech to the UN.

Sabah: “Unacceptable Rubio statements for Erdogan and Turkey”
In a statement, Erdogan said: “One can only say: Mr Trump, you may remember, used the term ‘I will end the Russia -Ukraine War’. Ended? It is still going on. Similarly, he said ‘I’ll end the war in Gaza’. Ended? No. This means that when we begin to analyze the issue, we see that there are consequences. When we look at the hostage exchange, it happened and it goes on. “
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, speaking to Fox News, replied: “Look, I didn’t hear the entire interview. I can only tell you that – on both issues – in the case of Russia and Ukraine, the only leader in the world who has a real chance of ending them is President Trump. That is why he has devoted more time and energy than anyone else. All these countries – including Turkey by the way – are begging us to get involved, they want to get involved. Look, these people can say whatever they want to say, but in the end, when they want to do something they want to come to the White House.
»President Erdogan comes to the White House this week to meet the president. Everyone comes to the White House, everyone wants to talk to President Trump. Everyone wants President Trump to solve something. So they can say what they want to say, but the truth is that today we have meetings with leaders who are begging to participate. Call by saying ‘can we include? Can you put us on the table? Can you give me five minutes to tighten the President’s hand? “
